Subject: Alan Greenspan: Bush Invaded Iraq for the OIL
Alan Greenspan claims Iraq war was really for oil

AMERICA’s elder statesman of finance, Alan Greenspan, has shaken
the White House by declaring that the prime motive for the war in
Iraq was oil.
In his long-awaited memoir, to be published tomorrow, Greenspan, a
Republican whose 18-year tenure as head of the US Federal Reserve
was widely admired, will also deliver a stinging critique of
President George W Bush’s economic policies.
However, it is his view on the motive for the 2003 Iraq invasion
that is likely to provoke the most controversy. “I am saddened that
it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows:
the Iraq war is largely about oil,” he says.
Greenspan, 81, is understood to believe that Saddam Hussein posed a
threat to the security of oil supplies in the Middle East.
Britain and America have always insisted the war had nothing to do
with oil. Bush said the aim was to disarm Iraq of weapons of mass
destruction and end Saddam’s support for terrorism.
